Busy day...my son and DIL talked me into getting a new couch..it rocks and reclines..Hard to get in the front door with my piano in the way but finally got it in..Then about an hour ago my 3 13 year old grandkids knocked on my door. Their mom allowed them to ride their bikes over to my house, down the katy trail...It was a nice surprise. So good to see them out and away from the video games! :) After cookies and pop cycles and playing the piano they decided to head back. Hope they do it more often!! These days its hard to let kids out of your sight like we did as kids...Time for bed!! :) have a great rest of weekend!!

I was able to get this block completed for QM before taking my quilt retreat break. I probably won't be able to do much here for a week. Lots of traveling etc.

Today the weather was much cooler, beautiful day. Hope everyone else gets the same break.
Pamela enjoy your visit with family DarcyShannon pretty block. Enjoy your beach vacation JoanLiz, how exciting a new couch and better yet that the grands were able to bike over and visit you. When my granddaughter bikes over it’s nerve wrecking till she gets here then home again. That’s so sad |
Lovely block, darcyshannon. :). Hope you enjoy your retreat break. We’ll be here when you get back.

Funny Cheesehead it’s rained here yesterday and today but the weekend is looking clear and beautiful.
My last two I believe for Dunes Libster, a star of course And for Stafar, thought the grunge blue went perfect with your fabric. Hope the embroidery turned out as you expected, very fun to make

I didn't realize what a hassle it is moving to a new town/state trying to get everything updated. I finally found a PCP who I like very much. My initial visit with him lasted one hour due to all the questions. I submitted a form to have all my records sent to him from Florida. But, in the meantime, he scheduled me with a LOT of tests. Since I have COPD from smoking (I quit 9 years ago), I have appointments to have pulmonary function tests, chest x-ray and lung cancer screening. An appointment with an Ophthalmologist for my macular degeneration, an ENT doctor for my ears, and a diagnostic mammogram. I also had a pneumonia and a tetanus shot and blood work. Phew!!!!!
Needless to say, I have one more block finished. It's called Courtyard Square from the 1,000 Blocks book for PamelaOry. I hope you like it. I'm going away for the weekend and will be back late Sunday night. I am hoping to get more blocks done next week in between appointments.

There was 20 of us this year. My dad is the only one of his siblings that is still alive so our numbers keep getting smaller.
|
My sister and I have 26 in our family, think that’s 3/4 of all our family reunions.

Large families seem alien to me but it must be lovely to have so many family members.

My family is tiny too. My mother had 1 brother and 1 sister, her brother had 1 child (who had none), her sister had 2 children (each had 1 child) my father was an only child. So I have 1 aunt 1 uncle, and 3 cousins, and 2 of whatever you call your cousin's kids. I have 2 siblings each has 2 kids, we have no children.
My husbands family is huge, he has literally hundreds of cousins (his mom and dad were one of 9 and 13) |
